Las Vegas

September 11-15th

We Flew to Vegas

For a Convention

for Ryan's Work.

While He Attended Day Classes/Meetings

[Big Yawner!]

I had a Great Time with My Sister-in-Law

Lazing at The Pool,

Getting Our Nails Done,

Working Out,

and

Visiting the

Max Brenner Chocolate Bar & Shop.

One Night We Went to

The House of Blues

for Dinner and Some Blue-sy Music.

Then We Walked

"The Strip"

and

Found a Place for Some Great Dancing!

The Final Night Banquet

is Always a Fancy Evening

[Us]

and

Concert

[Sheryl Crow]

Then Our Lil' Vacation Was Over.

Next Year's Convention?

San Antonio, TX

Yeee-Haw!

The Welcome Mat

is Out to All My New Followers!

Holy Smokes.

I've Been Kind of Busy, and Haven't Checked the Ol' Blog (or Posted) for a While,

and When I come Back to Jot..er..Type a Few Words of Our Going Ons,

I'm Rather Surprised (Stunned? Shocked?)

to See that My Followers had Jumped

by Leaps and Bounds.

I Think Most of You (My Fine, New Friends)

were Directed by Pinterest to My Home Projects,

and Decided to Stick Around.

I have Received a few Questions,

and I'll Get to Those, I Promise,

I Just Wanted to Say,

"Hey Friends, Welcome!"

and

{Thank You}

Nacho Night

The Last Friday of the Month

at Our House,

1) Everyone in Their Jammies

2) Kids Pick the Movie

(and My Personal Favorite)

3) Eat as Many Nachos as You Can!

This Month's Nacho Night Notes:

Now, Ya'll Come Back Now, Ya Hear?!

200th Mile

Today I Ran My 200th Mile!
Seventeen Months Ago,
I Got Up,
and Went for a Run
for the First Time in My Life.
It was the First 1.66 Miles,
I had Ever Run.
I Had NEVER Wanted to Run.
Now,
by My Own Two Feet,
Thunder Thighs,
Oatmeal Squares,
and Sheer Will Power,
I have Run Over 200 Miles.
Never Thought I Could.
Ever.

PS Doing My First 10K in October. I'm Pretty Excited.

Soccer Season

Has Begun.
